| YOU: You look troubled, is there anything I can do to help? |
| Reffitia: Oh I could not bother you. |
| Reffitia: It's my problem. |
| Reffitia: None of your concern. |
| Reffitia: Unless you really want to help? |
| YOU: No no, I really would like to help. |
| Reffitia: Bless you. |
| -Reffitia lowers her greying ears slightly and looks at you with pleading eyes.- |
| Reffitia: If you really do want to help me… |
| Reffitia: no, no. It is too much of an imposition. |
| -Reffitia mumbles to herself.- |
| Reffitia: I am in so much trouble… |
| Reffitia: Oh, I must. |
| Reffitia: I am desperate; these rats have broken into the tavern's food storage cellar, and Brado told me to handle it. |
| Reffitia: But- well, there are reasons I was not able to get it taken care of right away. |
| Reffitia: But he'll soon find that I have not handled it properly and there will be a new cook here. |
| Reffitia: Please, can you try to find ten rat hides? |
| Reffitia: If you give them to Brado and tell him that I caught the rats, that will give me time to get things done properly. |
| Reffitia: I just need a little time yes, some more time. |
| -Reffitia quickly turns to a simmering pot of stew and stirs it quickly, leaning over to sniff at the steaming scents before looking back at you and continuing.- |
| Reffitia: If you can find the ones near the cellar door, all the better. |
| Reffitia: Will you do it, oh kind Madam? |
| Reffitia: Will you help me? |
| YOU: Consider your woes solved! |
| Reffitia: Thank you so much. |
| Reffitia: It warms my heart to see someone so helpful to a kind old woman with too much work on her paws. |
| Reffitia: May Talad light your path and hasten your feet! |
| → Go to Brado |
| YOU: Here. These are for you. |
| Brado: Er, hello. |
| Brado: What are these for? |
| YOU: Reffitia sent me to bring them to you. |
| Brado: Ah, good. |
| Brado: I was starting to wonder how much of our stores were going to be eaten by those vermin. |
| -Brado starts cleaning a mug with a cloth as he continues.- |
| Brado: Please thank her for me. |
| → Go to Reffitia Thamal |
| YOU: Brado sends his thanks. |
| Reffitia: Oh, thank you, my kind Stonehammer, but I am still in deep trouble… |
| -Reffitia sighs as she flips slices of meat on the grill.- |
| Reffitia: I need to make three different stews here for a special dinner and the rats have eaten or spoiled some of the things I need for one of them. |
| Reffitia: If I do not get the ingredients back soon, then Brado will know I messed up again. |
| Reffitia: I have already used up his patience, I am certain. |
| -Reffitia looks over a recipe she has tacked to the wall.- |
| Reffitia: Please, if I can ask one more thing of you, I need ten carrots, five pieces of clacker meat and a tefusang tooth. |
| Reffitia: Can you get those items for me? |
| YOU: Yes, I don't have anything else to do for a bit. |
| Reffitia: Thank you so much. |
| Reffitia: It warms my heart to see someone so helpful to a kind old woman with too much work on her paws. |
| Reffitia: May Talad light your path and hasten your feet! |
| YOU: Here are your carrots. |
| Reffitia: Goodness, you have not forgotten me! |
| Reffitia: Thank you! |
| -Reffitia quickly slices the carrots into small discs with practiced movements and adds them to a steaming pot of broth.- |
| Reffitia: Could you now pass me the five pieces of clacker meat? |
| YOU: Here is the clacker meat, nice and lean |
| Reffitia: Good, good. |
| -Reffitia inspects the meat, sniffing at it and taking it to a cutting board for cleaning and dicing. She adds it to the same pot.- |
| YOU: The tooth of one tefusang, as ordered. |
| Reffitia: Thank you. |
| -Reffitia sets the tooth into a large stone mortar and pounds it determinedly with the pestle until the tooth is crumbled to a fine powder.- |
| Reffitia: There, the stew is coming to a nice boil. |
| -Reffitia sniffs around the edges of the pot and then stirs in the tooth powder. She takes a small sample with a spoon and tastes it before smiling broadly.- |
| Reffitia: Ah, it's delicious! |
| -Refittia's tail swings happily.- |
| Reffitia: You have been so kind to help save me today. |
| Reffitia: Please, let me give you these coins, and a gourd of this stew, I know we can spare one. |
| -Reffitia seals up some of the stew in a gourd and seals it with a wooden stopper. She gives it to you along with some coins.- |
| Reffitia: Thank you again, and may your path be lit! |
